For a Feeling
CamelPhat Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's like nothing ever works
And it only seems to hurt
Show me how you feel
Show me how you feel

We've been chasing old ideas
It's a lonely way to live
Show me how you feel
Show me how you feel

How I feel
Oh, baby

It's like nothing ever works
And it only seems to hurt
Show me how you feel
Show me how you feel

We've been chasing old ideas
It's a lonely way to live
Show me how you feel

I wish you would heal it
But you're killing me
All for a feeling
All for a feeling

I wish you would heal it
But you're killing me
All for a feeling
All for a feeling

Show me how you feel
Show me how you feel
Show me how you feel
Show me how you feel

I wish you would heal it
But you're killing me
All for a feeling
All for a feeling

I wish you would heal it
But you're killing me
All for a feeling
All for a feeling

Show me how you feel




Show me how you feel
Show me how you feel

Overall Meaning

The main sentiment conveyed in CamelPhat's song "For a Feeling" is one of emotional vulnerability and a longing for authentic connection. The repeated lines "It's like nothing ever works/ And it only seems to hurt" suggest a feeling of hopelessness and perhaps even despair at the futility of attempting to connect with others in a meaningful way.


The lyric "We've been chasing old ideas/It's a lonely way to live" hints at a desire to break free from traditional societal norms and expectations which may have contributed to feelings of isolation and disconnection. The lines "I wish you would heal it/ But you're killing me/All for a feeling" conveys a sense of frustration with the dynamic of one party wanting emotional healing and the other party not reciprocating or potentially even causing harm in their pursuit of feeling alive.


Overall, the song speaks to the complex nature of human emotions and the struggle to find genuine connection in a world that can be filled with negativity, disappointment, and loneliness.
